Figure 2
Dashed–dotted green curve: contrast ratio C given by equation (4) with C0 = 10%. Dashed red curve: the resulting signal-to-noise ratio given by equation (3) with δ = 3.13 nm, DQE = 0.5, F = 0.1 and N1/e = 104 nm−2. Blue curve: the corresponding dose-limited resolution for SNR = 3, given by equation (6) . All data are plotted as a function of particle fluence N divided by the characteristic fluence N1/e. |
